All the empirical studies review indicate that a lot of work has
been done in the field of family welfare in comparison with
reproductive health care services in comparison with acceptance of
female terminal methods. The available literature on the latter
highlights that there are studies which deal either exclusively with
family welfare services or with utilization of child immunization services.
Very few studies are available which have tried to cover the antenatal
care and its related issues. The present study therefore makes an
attempt to comer the aspects, i.,e., knowledge and utilization of
reproductive health services in terms of antenatal care.
